What if someone have Master in IT degree? Do they still require these certificate?

[@TheITCornerbyJR]

Hello, so if you have a Masters in IT you definitely should not worry about these certs. You should pursue something more advanced depending on what path you want to pursue.

You are very informative thanks i just want to know that isit ok to study comptia Itf+ in 2024 i just wonder will they update this course anytime soon or will it be expire anytime soon
Thank you

[@TheITCornerbyJR]

Thank you so much for watching. CompTIA ITF+ doesn't expire, and the last update was in 2018. In general, CompTIA updates their test every 3 yrs or so. Now, with ITF+, that has not been the case, and there is nothing i could find that states when. My recommendation is to start with A+. That's what I did, and it worked our just fine. Now, if you just want to know if IT is for you and not dive into something more deep than ITF. I can recommend some of the Google IT Certs or maybe do a full course on UA-cam for ITF or A+ to see if there is something that interests you.
Please feel free to let me know if there is anything else i can do to help. I am working on more content and have a few more videos out. Including the latest one that talks about getting a Cert or Degree to start in IT.
Hope this helps. Thanks once more.
